RUSSIAN LOLITA:

Mom, did you buy anything for dessert?

Pumpkin, we've got money problems.

OK, I get it.

- Maybe we should rent out one of our

rooms, what d'you think? - No way!

But that will help us solve many problems.

Uh-uh, and create new ones.

Then I don't know what to do.

Do whatever you want.

Hi, could you tell me how to get to

16 Commune street?

Cross the road there, walk 500 metres

and you'll see it.

About 500 metres this way, then?

Thanks.

Sorry! I was looking at the birdies,

didn't notice you.

Can you show me where Commune Street is?

What address are you looking for?

OK, let me show you.

- Are you planning to move in there?

- Yes, why?

Don't you have a place

to live in the city?

Yes, but I like to spend time out here.

You don't look like a

wood chopping type to me.

What makes you think I'm a a wood chopper?

- What else would you do around around here?

- I am a writer.

True, you don't look strong

enough for chopping wood.

- Only I wouldn't rent that room

if I were you. - Why not?

- Haven't you heard about the landlord

it belongs to? - No, why?

The landlord is a crazy woman

known for her outbursts.

She chased the last tenant away

with a knife.

- Are you serious?

- Ask anybody aroound here.

This is 13 Commune Street.

But I warned you. Bye!

OK, let's see.

Hello!

Hi, do you sublet the room?

Yes, please come in, my name is Olga.

I'm Gennady, a writer, I'd like to

work in the country for awhile.

Well, nice to meet you.

This is the kitchen.

Come take a look here.

This is your room, it's very spacy,

you'll be very comfortable here.

I see

Let me show upstairs

- Watch you step

- You've got a nice place.

- This is living room

- OK

Thanks for the tour. It's nice

house but I need to think it over.

Let me introduce my daughter Alisa.

You know what, I just made up my mind

I'll take the room.

- How was your first night in a new place?

- Loved it.

- How do you like my blinis?

- Thank you, they're very tasty.

- More tea?

- Yes, please.

Been a long time since we had

a man in the house.

How about a drink?

I don't mind.

"Zemfira", that's a nice one.

Thanks.

- What about me?

- You're too young.

I was hoping you'll say a toast

before drinking.

To us and you enjoying your stay here!

To us!

Listen, haven't you had enough?

- What's going on here?

- She's just fooling around.

To us.

To us.

My husband left us two years ago

He has remarried by now.

So you don't keep in touch

even for Alisa's sake?

He wrote once, asked if we needed

money.

I let him know that we want

nothing from him.

So what was his reaction?

He disappeared, no calls, no letters,

that was that. Just as I wanted.

Do you still love him?

I only loved him before Alisa's birth.

Soon after, he stopped noticing me

and would stay out longer and longer.

Arguments,

scandals and then total indifference.

So him leaving was no tragedy for me

or Alisa.

- So Alisa doesn't remember her father?

- No.

Do you have a boyfriend?

I tried to secure my daughter's future

so I had no time for myself.

But sometimes at night I'd feel sorry

for myself and cry.

Gennady, you know you're my first man

since my husband left me.

So did I disappoint you?

No, I feel great, I just don't

want Alisa to find out about us.

Why?

I don't know.

I feel uncomfortable about it.

So that's why you deny youself

any personal life?

I am a fool, I know.

I think Alisa would be jealous

of somebody else getting my attention.

But I still want you very much.

You know what, in two hours,

when she goes to sleep, come to my room.

- Hey look, someone's in the yard!

- Who? Where?

- There's no one there.

- Probably ran away.

- You didn't like it?

- No thanks, I'm just full.

"My last days before travel..."

- It's not nice to read somebody else's

letters - I thought writers write novels

Never mind, give it back to me.

Gennady, you wanna hear a joke?

- Later.

- I'll forget so I'll better tell now.

Alisa leave me alone in a toilet,

at least.

I won't bother you.

Kep doing whatever it is you're doing.

Hi.You aren't upset with me, are you?

- You misbehave. - I have no father,

so who's to teach me how to behave?

Gennady let's make a girl out of you.

It's my lifelong dream.

Gennady, what are you writing about?

- Of love, friendship, loyalty.

- Sounds like you're into science fiction.

Enough of your sarcastic remarks!

Who are the main characters of your novel?

Characters? Characters...

Well... men..and..women..

What's wrong, Gennady?

Nothing. I just don't like talking

about the book before it's finished.

Well, just tell us about yourself.

Gennady what do you need these

things here for?

To smack flies with them.

I've seen a lot of those 'fly killers'

when I was in summer camp.

- What was that?

- I think Alisa's still awake.

You better go or she'll suspect

something.

I'm going.

- You look odd today.

- I don't feel too well.

You need to rest more.

- Why don't you take a walk?

- I'll do that.

- What you got there?

- This is for you.

And this is for your mom.

You know, I was thinking: How long can

we hide our relationship from Alisa?

I think we should tell her.

She's old enough to understand.

I don't think it's a good idea.

It's up to you, really.

Thank you for the candies!

- I was reading your magazine...

- Who let you go through my stuff?

I just can't get used to seeing

your things in my closet.

- Pumpkin, I need to talk to you.

- What about?

- Me and Gennady.

- You got knocked up?

So you know about us?

How can I not know?

You keep me up all night with your moaning.

Can you keep it down a little?

Morning.

How was last night with mom?

- Wanna hear about the dream I had?

- OK.

- Only it's sexual.

- Then don't tell.

Let me just whisper it in your ear.

...and that's how the dream ended.

- More tea?

- Yes, please.

You interfere with my work.

I don't care. I'll call you Croc

from now on, that's your new nickname.

Listen, Croc.

Show me how you kiss mom at night.

Ugh!

What's so great about that?

Croc thanks for keeping my panties

in your pocket.

- Croc, do you have hair in your belly?

- Yes, I do.

- Let's take a look.

- What for?

Oh, where does it lead?

Come on, let me see!

So that's where the hairiest place is.

- Croc, can you help me?

- With pleasure.

Croc, I want you to wash me.

Croc, I don't want you to go to

mom tonight.

I can't do that.

You hurt me. I won't forgive you.

I'm going to punish you.

What sort of punishment do you choose?

Ugh, you're disgusting!

I'm going to the market,

pick up something for you.

- Get me some cherries.

- I know. I'm coming!

Alisa, it's you again with your

silly games.

Interesting.

So what are you planning to do with it?

What are you doing?

No.

Call Gennady, we'll have some fruit.

Gennady, I hope Alisa doesn't

interfere with your work?

No, quite opposite.

Having her around inspires me.

Does having me around inspire you?

It does, in different way.
